However, Guidelines for 802.11 Promiscuous Receive Operations says: Note When the miniport driver is in Native 802.11 modes other than NetMon, and OID_GEN_CURRENT_PACKET_FILTER is set, the driver must not fail the set request if any promiscuous or raw filter settings are enabled in the OID data. To quote the page for the OID_GEN_CURRENT_PACKET_FILTER OID:
On Windows, however, it's not clear whether "promiscuous" mode, as opposed to monitor mode, is supported on 802.11 adapters. The AR 9271 data sheet has a PROMISCUOUS bit in the receive filter register, described as "Promiscuous receive enable Enable reception of all frames, including errors", which sounds like monitor mode.Īnd, in fact, the Linux ath9k driver turns that bit on for monitor mode.
Alfa's page for the AWUS036NHA says the chipset is the Atheros AR9271.
